Is this when omniNames is running in an Xterm?  Or started from one
and running in the background?  If not, killing X shouldn't have any
effect on omniNames.

I don't see how a signal for one process could cause another to die.
I suppose one obscure possibility is that your kernel is dodgy, and
randomly sends signals to incorrect processes. I would have thought
that you would see other things dying if that was the case.

Unless anyone else is seeing this problem, I can only assume that
there's something very strange about your set-up.

Cheers,

Duncan.
